About Me:
I run product for a Wi-Fi Startup called Aerohive, by day.
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
When I was in grad school and after I did a lot with autonomous systems, but career got in the way and I ended up in Marketing... Anyhow, I have never lost my love of building stuff, especially stuff that do things without human interaction.

"I am going to patent a drone for back scratching! "
"Great job Andrew and all! You look like me when I launch a plane - running start!"
"Thank you @MarkM and @iskess That worked perfectly. Saved me another couple of hours of trying to make this work."
"Hi iskess,
I am not sure I understand what you mean. I have the mode change pugged into channel 5 and when I flip the switches I see the modes change in the "initial config page" So the Ardupilot sees the changes, but the modes dont seem to take…"

Just to first give some background... I have been using APM for about 2.5 years on copter but haven't used it on plane for about two years - so I have a decent sense about how to set up an autopilot... however, I am stumped on this one. So I am…
"I think you just witnessed an old-school idiot, who happened to have a drone. It could have been worse, he could have had a pellet gun or a baseball bat instead of a drone."
"I think that there is a big issue with this characterization - these guys are flying multi-rotors not really autonomous drones per se... I fly a lot in the bay area so I see quite a few drone pilots around - they tend to be extremely cautious and…"
"The folding design is nice, but I have to say 60 patents seems excessive and pretty scary especially given the overall solution appears to only have a couple of real innovations. Most tech companies grow up and go public with 10 to 20 patents…"
"Kevin - Is there anything you do that isn't awesome?
I just crashed and somehow ditched my telemetry air module, but when I get my new module, I will get everything loaded up. This is so exciting."

"I could swear that was Sen. Feinstien's window..."
A buddy of mine was walking around in San Mateo, CA (a city just south of San Francisco) and found this great sign... I only wish it said "Lost Drone" but this is still pretty good. May you never need to post one of these. If you want to see his…
"I totally get where she is coming from. I swear my daughter's dolls are looking at me every time I go in to her room... I just don't broadcast my irrational fears, except this one time..."
"I am pulling for you guys, I loved your presentation in Sebastapol. "
"By the transitive property of hipness, this makes me hip! Finally!"
"Yes please send me a faster charger :) I charge at 2A not for any particular reason.
Arthur, I want video and control over the same channel... when you get there, I am there :). I am a huge fan of droidplanner! it was actually sitting on the…"

"You have just reignited my childhood nightmares from Maximum Overdrive.
That said, this is still cool."
